Blokes in dresses telling fairy stories to kids, some of whom they later is abuse has been an issue here for a while. I guess you aren't talking about the church though? The whole Woke thing.has been blown out of all proportion. It is pretty easy to ignore stuff you don't want to participate in (Pride, marches, petitions or whatever), and also not be offended by the things you are told we are offended by. Far less hassle to just try and get on with people, and judge individuals on their actions |

Yes. This is the North Hands derby. Winch have had recent derbies against Totton, Sholing and The Demi-Skates of Havant and Waterlooville. Yet Merther away was midweek. |

Assuming it is on, I am going to go to Basingstoke v Winchester on Saturday I am going to Fortress St Mary's as well. My 19yo asked if I was going to go with him*, and that won't happen much longer, so I got us tickets *His mates aren't going. He knows I'll pay. |

The 4-1 in Oct 89 was probably the best I have ever seen a Saints team play. 4-2-4 with a young team with no fear. Other notable wins were 3-2 in Apr 83 (my second match, and Holmes scoring a beauty), and the 3-2 in 2016 from 2-0 down. Also, a 3-2 win up there in 98. I was in the home end to the right of the Saints fans. The Scousers around me sussed me, and plied me with whisky. Great afternoon. [Post edited 22 Nov 2024 21:37]

Please say that isn't true about the lads dressed as scousers... |

That late Saturday 1-0 defeat was good for Strachan's reaction. The team was so poor that he apparently got them in for training at 10am the next day. He turned up at 12 and said "You wasted two hours of everyone's time yesterday, I have wasted two hours of yours today". I hope that is true. |

"Also, Everton's record at SMS isnβt great" To be fair, neither is Southampton's. I have had my eye on that Derby record since about the 3rd/4th game. |

I feel dirty, and compare this to standing on the Fratton End, but have to point out that the Badenoch quote is from a parody Twitter account. The fact everyone believes it says what we know they are capable of Off to sing The Red Flag, whilst memorising the little red book to cleanse myself for sticking up for them |

Working in Basingstoke, I think Aldershot are probably the 4th most supported team with my match going colleagues after Saints, Palace & Chelsea. The Shots fans see Reading as their natural rival but don't particularly like Woking. Eastleigh haven't really registered with them. And as long as I finish work in time, I am off to watch Winchester Saturday as I have a season ticket there and I haven't used it yet |

He was on my train about 4/5 years ago and we were having a chat. Fair to say that he is getting on a bit and that was coming across. I spoke to him about when I first started going to the match and how great it was watching the likes of Moran, Wallace, Williams and Wright. Instantly, he turned back in to the housewife's favourite of that early 80s period and was the larger than life character we knew. He told me the story of Moran playing for Sarisbury Sparks and the promise of new boots if he scored a hatrick. A well known story from the era, but he was telling me! It was a great moment for me and you could tell the love he had for his team. |

That sounds great. I did an Ajax match for my 50th last year. This year, for my 51st, I'm off to watch Hamburg. This weekend though, it's Winchester v Weymouth in the FA Cup |

Pat gave me a kiss at HT at Fratton when we stuffed them the other year. I think that kiss changed him and woke up some dormant feelings within him, and he has barely missed a game since. And it's to his credit. π π |
